Cleveland Gun Club. 
CJ.EVELAND, O., April 20.—The regular weekly club 
shoot of the Cleveland Gun Club was held to-day at 
the shooting park, Mayfield road. It was an interesting 
affair, seventeen shooters facing the traps with weather 
conditions ideal. 
Mr. C. E. Doolittle was high gun, as usual, breaking 
148 out of 150 in the four events, the monthly, the annual 
and the two DuPont fob shoots, making a run of 128 
straight. This is a remarkable shooting record and 
would do a professional honor to make it; but Charley 
is doing great this year and is in a class of his own, 
as far as Cleveland is concerned. Dr. Brown was next 
high man with a score of 93 out of 100 in the two 
regular events. Third place was filled by Hogan. Judd, 
Stepp and Wallace each broke 91 out of 100'. The \yay 
the bunch shot, one would think they were shooting 
for something to eat, as scores are always made at a 
dinner table. 
Next Saturday we expect to have with us Judge Aug 
and Mr. F. D. Telling, and some of the others who 
have been waiting for good weather. Capt. Freeman 
broke 46 out of 50 in the DuPont fob shoots. Rogers 
and Genner had to wind up the day with three little 
matehes of 25 targets each at 22yds., just to see what 
they could do. Rogers broke 61 and Genner 56, which 
was good shooting for long flyers.

Jersey City Gun Club. 
Jersey City, N. J.. April 20. —Thirteen rnembers were 
out at the Saturday shoot of the Jersey City Gun Club 
to-day. It was a fine day for shooting, and the scores 
were very much better than they have been for several 
weeks, and had the effect of giving the members more 
confidence in their ability as shooters, as some of them 
had about given up the idea of getting back to their 
usual good form, but to-day everybody was happy, and 
all promised to show up right along now until we close 
up for the summer. 
The match between Piercy and Hallinger had to be 
postponed for the time being, as Hallinger failed to put 
in an appearance, and no one would volunteer to take 
his place. 
Dave Engle was high gun with 86 per cent., and Geo. 
Piercy second with 84 per cent. McLemore took third 
place with 82 per cent., which, by the way is the best 
form he has shown all season. He started for New 
York looking for Sha«non, so as to tell him how lucky 
he was in not coming over to-day and thereby escaping 
a good trimming. The scores follow:

JERSEY CITY. N. J. 
Y OU know mallards—wisest and wariest of all 
ducks—Solomons of the air. You can’t knock 
down mallards with a paddle nor can you get them 
with a gun that plasters its shots all over the face 
ef creation. 
A mallard shot is generally a long shot, and long 
shots require a hard-shooting, close-shooting gun. 
That’s why the long-headed man who goes to a 
mallard country takes a Lefever. When he swings 
it on a towering pair of mallards he does not ques¬ 
tion the result. He know it— 
TWO CLEAN KILLS 
The reason a Lefever kills clean and sure and 
far is Lefever Taper Boring. 
But if yon buy a Lefever for the taper boring 
alone, you will get more than your money’s worth. 
For instance, you will never be handicapped with 
looseness at the hinge joint. The exclusive Lefever 
screw compensates for a year’s wear by a trifling 
turn that you make yourself with a screwdriver.

ver simplicity and strength make the $28 gun the 
r eer of any S 50 gun on the market. Upwards to
